Two (2) teams will be let into the east end of the arena at the same time and will compete at the same time---one from the east end and one from the west end. Cows will be released from SE and SW corners of arena. When cows clear the gates, leaving the alleys, flagmen will drop their flags, starting the ropers and their times. 3. Two-minute time limit. Two loop limit. 4. Catch as catch can, but cow’s head must pass through the loop. 5. Rope must be off the saddle horn before the milking commences, failure to do so will result in a no time, and off the cow before time is flagged. 6.

Anyone of the contestants may milk the cow. The milker may pass the bottle to another man to run to the judge. Runner must hand the bottle to the judge. If the milk will not leave the bottle, or if contestant turns the bottle upside down, the team will receive a No-Time. The judge will turn the bottle upside down and allow 10 seconds for milk to leave the bottle. The team with the fastest time wins. TEAM DOCTORING: 1. Four (4)-man team. All contestants may rope, however the vet’s rope must be off the saddle horn and clear of the horse before the vet dismounts. Failure to do so will result in disqualification. Only one paint stick will be provided. 2. A herd of yearlings will be held behind a line approximately 60 feet from the end of the arena. As riders approach the line, the announcer will call a number that has been drawn for them. Time begins when the first rider crosses the line. Without loping into the herd, numbered yearling must be cut out from the herd and driven across the start line, before it can be roped. Loping in herd will result in a 30 second penalty. If the yearling gets back across the line, before it is roped, roper may not chase it through the herd, but must slow down and cut it out again. No more than two head may cross the line as roper cuts his yearling out, more than two head will result in a No-Time. All four (4) team members shall be horseback.

Ropers may dally or tie hard-n-fast. There is a 3-loop limit. 4. Steer must be standing when it is headed and/or heeled. Steer must be headed first.

Two (2) minute time limit. TEAM BRANDING: 1. A four (4) to six (6) man team, including a roper, two flankers, a brander and two herd holders. (If the team does not have enough members to have herd holders, they may ask for help from another team. This should be noted with the announcer so that he may mention the good sportsmanship and good working relationships between the ranches.) 2. A herd of cows and calves are held behind a line 60 feet from the end of the arena by the herd holders, who cannot cross the line. 3. Two (2) teams will run at one time. This will require two (2) "fires" for the irons and two (2) flag judges. 4. The ropers will start at the same time by signal from a judge. Time begins when the judge’s flag drops. Without loping at any time from the initial start of competition to the completion of the run on the second calf they will have a two (2) minute time limit to drag two (2) calves each, allowing all the loops they need. Ropers should respect and not interfere with other contestants. Intentional interference will result in disqualification. Only one rope can be used in the branding. 5. The ropers may not rope outside the line. Roping outside line will result in 30-second penalty. If a calf is roped by one or both front legs it cannot be drug to the fire. To do so will result in disqualification. If needed, flankers may remove the rope from the calf, upon permission being given by a judge. If a calf is roped by the neck, the calf may not be dragged on its side. The calf must be allowed to regain its footing before it is brought to the fire. Failure to allow this will result in a 30 second penalty. 6. The flankers may touch the rope but may not touch the calf until the whole calf has been dragged across the line. To do so will result in 30-second penalty. After the calf is flat on it's side and the rope removed, the branding iron is removed from the bucket, the calf branded on it's ribs on either side, and the iron returned to the bucket after branding each calf. The brander may help flankers remove the rope, however the iron must stay in the bucket until rope is removed. Time stops when branding iron is in the bucket after the second calf. 7. After a calf has been branded, he must return to the herd before he can be roped again. If two (2) calves are roped and dragged to the fire, one of them must be released and allowed to return to the herd. 8. The winner is the fastest time on two (2) calves.

  • Granddaddy of ’Em All,” the Original Ranch Rodeo
    THE ‘ GOFranddaddy EM ALL WICHITA FALLS’ ORIGINAL RANCH RODEO KATHRYNSTORY BYJONES PHOTOGRAPHSDAVE SHAFER BY Photo by Kevin Stillman Photo by Kevin Stillman 36 texashighways.com AUGUST 2017 37 ed sand flies across the arena as ranch cowboys show off the skills of their horses, which have colorful names like Loretta Lynn, Snake, Purr Cat, and Brandin’ Crew. Each cowboy rides his horse hard, then pulls back the reins to stop abruptly. Next, each rider backs up his horse, rides in one direction and then another, making the shape of a figure eight. In a final display of agil- ity and versatility, each horse chases down a calf so the cowboy, still in the saddle, can rope it. Applause and shouts echo in the stands from the fans at Wichita Falls’ Multi-Purpose Event Center, many of whom are wearing cowboy hats themselves. This “top horse” competition tests American Quarter Horses and their riders on skills they’d need if they were working on a ranch, especially smoothness of movement and quickness of response. It’s just one of the events at the Texas Ranch Roundup, held each August in Wichita Falls to simulate events at the cattle roundups of the late 1800s and early 1900s. This year’s roundup runs Aug. 18 -19. R I had never seen the Texas Ranch Roundup, billed as the “granddaddy of ’em all,” the original ranch rodeo. So my husband and I drove to Wichita Falls from our home near Glen Rose last August to watch working cow- boys and cowgirls from some of Texas’ most historic ranches compete for the all-around title.
